The People's Republic of Natanielia is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, triple-decker prams, and devotion to social welfare. The quiet, industrious population of 660 million Natanialians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Giznhov. The average income tax rate is 58.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Natanielian economy, worth 51.7 trillion Knots a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Trout Farming. Average income is 78,350 Knots, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Buses are widely regarded as the safest way to travel, retirees make up the bulk of foreign students, the election for Leader's office's janitor is heating up, and the nation's official head of religious affairs is an atheist. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Natanielia's national animal is the Fish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Natanielia is ranked 295,244^th in the world and 116^th in The Pacifica for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring -16 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
